Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

northumbia Stefan Zweig was one of the greatest writers of the XX century. His biographies were master pieces, his novellas were a model of his class. All around the world the people read his works and listen to his ideas. Then the War came over. Hitler, Goobles... You know that dreadful history.Zweig came to Brasil as a refuge. "Lost Zweig" show us the last days of the writer, the pressure of the government of Vargas, the strange feeling of being in the paradise, while in his own country the devil was the only ruler and hell the life that went on. Zweig wrote a wonderful autobiography "The World of Yesterday", but as Friderike, his first wife, notice, and every other reader, Zweig doesn't show himself, he is this great writer that hide himself in facts and history. This movie tries to show that man, the writer that loves Montaigne, the friend's worries for his Jewish people, the strange husband, the public figure. "Lost Zweig" aims to one drama, the refuge, the guilt of being away and cannot do anything for your love ones.I am huge fan of Zweig and I really enjoyed this movie. It's is a great portrait. The director shuffles the chronology in a marvelous way, play with the images, with chess. If you are a Zweig fan, you have to see this picture. If you are not aware of this great writer, well… This picture has plenty thing to said, about the times, the spirit, and the frustration of a great writer in such a difficult times.

Contacted I dont think anyone but the director is gonna come and look at this page. So, I apologize Mr.Black but this movie wasnt very good filmmaking. The story is interesting but you cant just rely on dialogue and rhetoric to carry it. You need drama and action. And also the english accents in this movie are so ridiculous you cant take the movie seriously. Why do the Brazilian characters talk to themselves in english? And how come EVERY one knows english, from the maid to the prostitute, and the main characters cant bother themselves to learn portuguese? And if theyre german, why do they constantly speak english to themselves? Boring and a little bit pretentious, but you had good intentions so I cant blame you.
